Etude Cabernet Sauvignon St. Helena

Purchased at Etude in 2015. Almost $90 at the time. Hard to find for less than $180 now. Basically, outstanding. Dark purple fruit, and lots of herbs on the nose. Maybe a little coffee and cocoa. Smooth, supple tannins, great acidity, and a beautiful finish. Opens up nicely after a 90 minute decant. Keeping a second bottle for a few more years, should be well worth the wait.
